In the Twilight saga, Stephanie Meyers uses pictures to depict what is going on in the books. On each book, there is something red. Twilight has a red apple, New Moon has a flower, Eclipse has a red ribbon and Breaking Dawn has a red chess piece. The apple represents the forbidden fruit, which symbolizes the forbidden love between Edward and Bella. The flower does not have an actual meaning. The red ribbon shows how Bella is breaking ties between her and the human world. The red chess piece shows Bella in her vulnerable human form then becoming a vampire which is depicted by a queen chess piece. I chose this because I think it is clever how the author chooses to portray the hidden message in her books. When you first look at the books, you do not understand why she chose the images that she did. But after you read them, you understand the meaning behind each picture. I think the art is red because the book is about vampires so it must have something to do with blood. I think Stephanie Meyer did a good job in choosing these pictures for her books.
